Client Testimonials

“I had been entertaining the idea of trying yoga for quite some time. I met Rachel Moncayo through a mutual friend about a year ago as I also wanted a private yoga instructor. Her knowledge, expertise, and tenacity to create specific injury type sessions for me were beyond exceptional. I would highly recommend Rachel regardless of your yoga level.” Monica T.

Rachel is not only good for my body, she works wonders on my soul too. I first started having sessions with Rachel due to a neck and shoulder injury that I was not finding other treatments to be successful in helping with. I tried conventional physical therapy, chiropractors and massage but the throbbing pain and soreness kept returning. I started feeling relief very quickly and as I progressed with her the pain and soreness lessened and I finally had some relief. I also started to find that I was less stressed as I continued on and I am able to practice what she teaches me at home. I also learned that taking group yoga classes over the years had not taught me proper techniques for moves or breathing. Rachel tailors her sessions to my needs and even researches new moves that could help with whatever issue I am having at any given time. I am so glad I learned about Rachel and sought out her services, my life is definitely more mindful now. Melissa Maulding

"I added the Wednesday yoga class to my weekly workout routine about a year ago for the sole purpose of increasing my flexibility. I quickly realized that it improved my overall health in many ways. I'm more flexible, stronger and use class techniques to manage day to day stress. I truly look forward to Wednesday yoga and would recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their overall health."
